What are these two bolts for? (Fitting B14's)

Raider, 172, the van
Why don't you ask the seller?

I have this kit, didn't have those two bolts though? And I can't see where they would go? Rears fit exactly as a standard shocker does, change the springs over and fit the adjusters under the springs. I don't have the adjuster on the rear of mine, I removed it to allow it to drop more. But I don't have any interior to compensate
This is what I thought odd really, the seller had the coilovers fitted at a garage so can't comment on how they go on unfortunately.

Give k-tec a ring? I'm sure they would help you. Fred knows a lot about them as well. But 100% mine doesn't have them. If it was me I'd go ahead and fit them. It's easy to do. Just measure the two front shocks so they have the same amount of drop and keep adjusting until your happy with the look of the car

I have seen people nut and bolt the lower rear shocker if the threads have been damaged etc? Occasionally they will snap! Had it happen once to me!
Maybe that? You shouldn't require them though IMO.
That size bolt? It's tiny

If you bought these off M6 tmw is it, the bolts arn't off the coilovers as i sold him them, they are indeed the 2 bolts out of the Powerflexed dogbone mount i also sold him, hope this clears this up for you
yes these are the coils i sold him, couldnt see the pic at 1st as i was on my mobile and as said the bolts are from the dogbone, also notice it says you have a 182 and these are infact 172 fitment

If its a non cup 182 the hub spacing will be the same as 172.

Yep hopefully he's non cup packed, still have invoice for these aswel, were ordered brand new last yr by Adamm, he fitted them to his ph1 and crashed it a few month's later and i bought the car for the box,wheels etc and was going to keep these but thought the money would of been better off in the pocket lol
Are you defo sure mate....a few people have told me they go at the bottom...they only sit in the spring at one end..
???
Confused!

1000000% sure! See a post that sprintcup has also put up today regarding this, they usually do go at the bottom but on the B14's they should be at the top as whwn its at the bottom and the rear beam moves up and down the spring doesn't seat on the adjuster properly!

The adjusters don't allow for enough adjustment on the rear, it's a shame TBH
